As we mentioned on another thread, we've been using the new White Labs nutrient with similar results. Wonder if the new Wyeast Activator packs include a similar active nutrient. Do they say on the package what specific nutrients are included along with the yeast?

The Activator has a 100 Billion yeast cells on average. Also, 'malt and nutrients' is included. I assumed it was the cell count. It has more than triple the amount of other liquid yeast's. That and the slap packs I've bought are only a couple of weeks old which helps.

It is a vigorous yeast for sure that activator. . The beer started fermenting yesterday after a few hours of pitching, and bubbled and frothed hard...Well This morning it had blown the airlock completely off and bubbled all the way down the glasscarboy! Woo hoo!
